Nm the BC point that’s just me saying people usually talk about it around launch period. But don’t go all historical revisionist on me with KZ. That is most definitely not where gamers spent their time compared to all the cross gen titles. People bought PS4 for the investment knowing better exclusives would eventually come out and spent their money on the best versions of cross gen games in the meantime. 

I mean cmon it got the lowest meta in the series, sold over a million naturally and clawed its way to 2 million lifetime via bargain pricing. I laugh whenever I hear the anti cross gen argument because those people disregard their own history. 

Funnily enough I got my PS4 to play new games and yes KZ:SF was one despite reviews, which was not bad. I don't go by that metric and lots of people don't either. Most games I've enjoyed and completed don't even reach the 80 mark. Doesn't mean they are no good, critic reviews are all subjective to the reviewer anyway.

I don't get the logic. Or you're just trying to downplay the importance of first party titles in the initial years, because, reasons. And the 'best version' of a game has never been a factor in what makes a console popular.

Well I'm a diehard fan of Playstation so he can make fun but the 3 games I bought the console for and enjoyed most the first year were KZ:SF (a lot easier to play than the other 3 and much prettier), Knack (as R&C wasn't on launch and that was the platformer I had to enjoy, and plat with the use of the smarthphone app, they were doing a lot of tie-in the start of the gen then everyone forgot about it) and Infamous Second Son (plat 1 and a half time, because the first half was on the wrong account).
